Nowhere else on earth exists such

earth, from 1,000 to 6,000 feet deep.
The canyon of the Yellowstone Is trl-r

long, varying from 0 to 13 miles In

must descend 6,000 feet of sheer rock.

Long Sarlos of Canyon#.
The Colorado river crosses the pla
teau province from northeast to aoutb
west. It has carved a series of can
yens whose total leugth exceed* WW
miles. All these canyons are clear
eut, deep gashes lu nearly level plat
forms and their step-like walls de
scend abruptly by alterations of bold
cliffs and na.rroiV ledges. The river
at the bottom carries the drainage
from the whole western f.ont of the
Itocky mountains in Colorado - and
southwestern Wyoming. Because of
the general lmpassablllty and inhospi
table character of the bordering des
erts, these canyons form a barrier to
hi: man travel more effective than the
Itocky mountains. The Colorado river
la unbrldged for 700 miles, a distance
about equal to the distance between
New York and Chicago.
In the high-blocked plateaus of the
Giand Canyon district the canyons
reuch their culmination In size and
grandeur. Tho pathWay of the river
across these plateaus is the most re
markable valley In the world. The
section that traverses the marble, plat
form Is known as the Marble canyon,
being GO miles In length. The part

the Grand canyon remains the first
natural wonder of the world.
Nature's Titanic Struggle.
While we may say that the Grand
canyon la truly a canyon, it is rather
an intricate system of canyons, each
subordinate to the river channel in the
midst. The river channel, lying n^ore
than 6,000 feet below the vision, seem
ingly is a rather insignificant trench, 1
attracting the eye more by reason of
its somber tofie and mysterious sug
gestion than by any appreciable char- '
acteristlc of the chasm. ' It is perhaps j
five miles distant in a straight line,
antf^ts uppermost rims nearly 4000
feet beneath the observer, whose
measuring capacity is entirely Inade- I

with a local uplift, or structural sw^ll,
In the Colorado plateau. Its area is
about 16,000 square miles. Over prac
tically all of this nearly level expanse
one geologic formation, the Itafhab
limestone, is surface rock. . Along the
eastern border of the district, a sharp
bend, known as a mono
cline, carries the beds to a lower level,
where they resume their nearly hori
